Purpose

The Community-Led Inclusive Recovery initiative is a sub-component under the Support to Ukraine’s Reforms for Governance project (SURGe, P-006680-001). In response to Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, certain project activities were adapted to address new immediate needs and protect previous development gains. Canada’s development partners in Ukraine pivoted project activities to respond to the evolving context in several ways such as providing emergency supplies, equipment and services, and mental health support , transportation and accommodation. The beneficiaries, scope, expected results and geographic location of project activities may have changed from the original description. The SURGe project aims to improve the quality of life of Ukraine’s citizens, particularly women and girls, through inclusive, citizen-centric and gender-responsive reforms managed by the Government of Ukraine. The project uses a responsive expert deployment mechanism to enhance and strengthen the Government’s reform management. Under SURGe, the Community-Led Inclusive Recovery component provides technical assistance and support to the government of Ukraine to develop a national approach for community-led recovery initiatives and roll out a national digital planning and monitoring platform. The project deploys technical experts to work directly with Ukrainian municipalities on building inclusive recovery plans aligned with national frameworks and priorities. The plans respond to the specific needs of women and girls, returning veterans, marginalized groups, and those displaced by the war.
